A cinematic masterpiece
This drama is just a masterpiece! It has really good & high quality acting, casting, cinematography, plot, flow, producing, etc. Especially I like the drama's cinematography which suits the scenes and portrays the emotions so well.From the first episode on I got really hooked and got really deep into this drama which I loved (I didn't have to think of anything else than the drama I was watching). I watched this almost in one sitting and didn't get bored in any moment when watching it which is pretty rare for me (I'm a person who usually gets bored in seconds). It was a bit too sad tho (cried like 9/10 episodes which is totally my record) and I had to get some tissues between some scenes because my nose was running a bit too much XD I'm not complaining about the sadness tho because I really like watching dramas that brings emotions to me!
Really random fact but this drama got me into classical music and nowadays I listen to classical music really often. I especially listen to classical when I really need to concentrate on something like when I'm writing my school essays which is pretty similar to how Han Geu-ru uses classical music too because he listens to it when he's working which usually requires lots of concentration.
This and Strangers from hell are the only dramas that I have given a full TEN as the rating and I have watched about 200-300 dramas in total so that should say a lot how good this really was.
The only complain I would give this drama is that it's a bit too short because I would want to see way more of this ;(( Hopefully we will get a second season someday :D

An intensive story about revenge
Before I started watching this I had pretty low expectations because nowadays the Netflix Kdrama thrillers have been kinda disappointing to be honest but then I fell in love! The episodes get more and more interesting and intense by episode that you just get hooked.I haven't watched a drama this good in a long time so I finished watching this in a day. Everything was just so good but a slight minus is that I would have wanted some original soundtracks to the drama so I could go listen to them after watching it but it didn't affect my watching experience tho.
All I can say here is that just go watch it!

Too underrated!
So first I want to say that I don't understand how I haven't heard anybody but one person on TikTok talk about this drama. I'm usually very informed person about K-dramas so I was very surprised and confused how I haven't heard about this one until now when it aired already 2 years ago so I think we should talk about this one way more.I loved this drama so much! I'm a person who gets usually very bored if I watch a boring drama (of course XD), so I drop or fast forward a lot of dramas for that reason, but this was a nice surprise (and also I didn't do neither one of those with this drama).
It was heart fluttering, inspiring, funny and interesting to watch. I loved how much there were interesting and shocking information I didn't know before, and I think that was one thing what got me the most deep into this drama. Also I loved how the male lead was very (maybe a little too much because it got my expectations too high...) sweet and supportive of his wife. He never complained but tried to understand and learn about his wife's mind and her needs (even when he was also sick).
But yeah, I definitely recommend this drama to everyone (expect extreme baby haters because there's a lot of babies crying there XD)

ABSOLUTELY TOO GOOD!!
This is definitely my number 1 favorite K-drama!I have already watched this K-drama about 3 to 4 times and I can say that I absolutely LOVE it! It's the perfect horror/thriller drama you could ever watch. My favorite part is the cinematography which suits the drama so much and makes it thrilling and scary to watch. Also the acting, the characters, the plot, the soundtracks and the setting were all awesomely planned and done which of course makes watching the drama pleasing.
I got hooked to the drama from the very first episode. There were not a single episode that was boring which I really like because I don't like dramas that are boring to watch at all. I would had wanted the drama to be a little bit longer though because it had only 10 episodes which is pretty short for a K-drama when they usually have 16 episodes.
I recommend this drama to people that are interested in topics like murder, cannibalism, living in poverty, stalking and psychopaths. Trust me this is a masterpiece!

a big disappointment (again)!
I know that I probably shouldn't say anything with just watching one single episode, but I have to. I keep getting disappointed with these new Netflix K-dramas over and over again. They are just very confusing and don't make really any sense to me at all and I think it's because of the popularity of Squid game. They are trying to make something dark like squid game but end up failing very badly. Also I think that they are trying to make K-dramas westernized/American with these unnecessary sex scenes that are just very badly placed to please the American viewers to get popularity globally.The drama seemed very interesting in the description because I'm very interested (only interested nothing more) in serial killers and psychopaths, but it wasn't anything that I expected from reading that. Also the placing was much more interesting/ clearer in the trailer than in the drama itself.
The good thing about this drama was the cinematography (and the acting) and that's about it.
